Hey guys, Clodagh here!
I'm sorry I've been gone so long, it feels like it's been ages since I've sat down and wrote a blog post!
So I haven't had internet for the past few weeks. so that's why I've been MIA!
Anyway, as some of you may know, we had our formal on Tuesday. To mark the occasion, I ventured into the magical land of gel nail polishes and honey-I'm never going back.
Let us get something out in the open.
I, a beauty blogger, SUCK AT NAILS.
I can't paint them.
I can't do upkeep.
I have them smudged within five minutes, I chip them within the day, even when being really careful.
I'm really harsh on nails, and we have a no nail polish rule at our school, so I just don't bother.
That picture above? That was taken on Sunday. The nails were put on the previous Monday. No chips, no smudges, no lumps or bumps. They're as perfect as the day they were put on. They dry instantly, which is handy, so no waiting around for twenty minutes at a nail salon. They are perfect for people that can't keep nail polish on for a day, like me. It's a bit pricer than getting normal nail polish on,(I got it as part of a deal, but at the same day spa it costs £20.50, and £3 for glitter) but it's completely worth it, in my opinion. Not the sort of thing you top up every two weeks, but it's great for occasions. I would definitely get gel nails again. I'm so in love with them, I'm refusing to take them off when teachers ask.
Incase you're wondering, the colours I got were 'A Mint of Spring' with 'June Bride' on my ring finger on each hand. (Thanks for the idea, Pinterest!) The girls at the spa loved it so much they were suggesting it to other people! Trendsetter? Moi? It would appear so!
So, let me know-have you ever tried gel nails? What did you think?
Peace, Love and cupcakes,
Clodagh xx
